Recently, the Jiangxi Provincial Accident Investigation Team announced the investigation report of the "1.8" major road traffic accident in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province. The accident, which occurred on January 8, 2023, left 20 people dead and 19 injured. After a detailed investigation, the investigation team analyzed the cause of the accident and put forward corresponding accountability and suggestions.
At the scene of the accident, a heavy-duty semi-trailer tractor truck that was seriously overloaded was speeding, and the road encountered a crowd of people who were occupying the road to carry out funeral activities. Due to the failure to take effective safety avoidance measures, at the same time, due to the burning of paper money and firecrackers in funeral activities, smoke was formed, which affected the line of sight of the vehicle, resulting in vehicles colliding with the crowd, causing serious personnel and property losses.
Cheng Moucai, the driver of the vehicle that caused the accident, was investigated for criminal responsibility on suspicion of committing a crime, and Xu Moubao, the actual owner of the vehicle that caused the accident, and Xu Mouhua, the direct manager, were also held accountable for their negligence in the daily safety management education of the vehicle and the driver. At the same time, clues such as problems in the performance of duties by local party committees, relevant departments, and public employees of state-owned enterprises discovered during the investigation of the accident will be handed over to the discipline inspection and supervision organs for further investigation and handling.
The investigation report also summarizes the lessons learned from the accident and the main problems exposed. On the one hand, the main responsibility of road transport enterprises for safety production is not implemented, and the daily safety management education of their vehicles and drivers is neglectedOn the other hand, driven by profits, the source enterprises of goods do not implement the responsibility of overloading at the source, and acquiesce in or allow overloading behavior;
In addition, the relevant grassroots party committees and functional departments of Nanchang County failed to effectively coordinate development and security;Leping Municipal Transportation and other departments have neglected the safety supervision of cargo transportation enterprises, and have not effectively implemented the responsibility of over-governance.
